Tonight I managed to get a bit done on the walls and thatch of the village. Adding the brown to the base of the walls really makes the aged wood colour a bit more visible.
As you can see, the thatch was done just before the photo was taken. Still a whole lot of work to do on these, but I am definitely getting there.
I did swear earlier this evening, lots, in fact. I came home to this…
These buildings in the spaghetti are exactly the same as the ones above. There has been a massive layer shift on them as well as some not printing above a certain height. The only thing that I can think of is that one popped off and it caused a domino effect with the rest.
i therefore decided to print them in pairs (only to find part way through the print that I have one solid and one hollow on the plate). This time I have added supports in case it was the lack of support that caused the problem above.
It looks like shuttering around the building 🤣 It really does show how far out the roof sticks out…
I was gonna’ suggest printing fewer bits, but you already tried that. Another thing you might want to try is selecting “build plate adhesion” in your slicer. Good luck!

I think I got a bit complacent as I had just put a new build plate on the machine. I didn’t check the level either, so totally my fault.

Yeah, I get that from time to time, now I pretty much start with a bed plate level before each print.

The painted bits look great.
I tend to print everything on a raft these days and I get less problems.
Cheers,
Pete.
